The 1990–91 NBA season was the Spurs' 15th season in the National Basketball Association, and 24th season as a franchise.[1] During the off-season, the Spurs acquired Paul Pressey from the Milwaukee Bucks.[2][3][4] After a promising rookie season from second-year star David Robinson, the Spurs would win 17 of their first 22 games, holding a 32–13 record at the All-Star break.[5] However, with Terry Cummings and Rod Strickland lost for long stretched games due to hand injuries,[6][7] the team struggled in February with a 4–7 record. At midseason, the team released Reggie Williams to free agency, and signed free agent Avery Johnson, who was previously released by the Denver Nuggets.[8] The Spurs would bounce back winning 13 of their final 17 games as they won the Midwest Division with a solid 55–27 record.[9]

Robinson averaged 25.6 points, 13.0 rebounds, and 3.9 blocks per game while being selected to the All-NBA First Team, All-Defensive Second Team, and for selected the 1991 NBA All-Star Game.[10][11] In addition, Cummings averaged 17.6 points and 7.8 rebounds per game, while second-year forward Sean Elliott provided the team with 15.9 points and 5.6 rebounds per game, Willie Anderson contributed 14.4 points and 4.8 assists per game, and Strickland provided with 13.8 points, 8.0 assists and 2.0 steals per game.[12] Robinson also finished in third place in Most Valuable Player voting,[13][14][15] and in second place in Defensive Player of the Year voting,[16][17] and head coach Larry Brown finished tied in fifth place in Coach of the Year voting.[18][19]

In the Western Conference First Round of the playoffs, the Spurs faced the 7th-seeded Golden State Warriors, led by the trio of Chris Mullin, Mitch Richmond and Tim Hardaway. The Spurs won Game 1 at home, 130–121,[20][21][22] but would then lose the next three games, thus the series.[23][24][25][26] Following the season, David Wingate signed as a free agent with the Washington Bullets.[27][28]

On November 3, 1990, the Spurs hosted the Los Angeles Lakers on the premiere broadcast of the NBA on NBC. The Spurs defeated the Lakers, 110–99.[29][30][31][32]
